A Fire Will Keep You Warm
A fire will keep you warm, fed, and safe—whether you’re roughing it
on a backcountry camping trip or wandering outside to evade the
undead. Learn how to start one without matches or a lighter, and you’ll
be far ahead of the rest of the world’s survivors. You can carry a flint
and steel set with you, learn a challenging friction-based fire-building
method, or use a lens to focus the sunlight. Either way, this is a skill
you’re going to need, so start practicing now.
Be a Good Housekeeper:
Backcountry campers are used to carefully setting up and cleaning
campsites to avoid attracting wildlife—and there’s nothing wilder than
the undead. To avoid both, don’t camp in the path of unwelcome
creatures and keep anything that smells like food (or you, in this case)
far from wandering noses. Follow these rules, and you just might get a
decent night’s rest.
Build Up Your Endurance
When you’re out of weapons and at the end of your survival rope, you’ll
only have one option left: run. If you’re facing the typically conveyed
zombies, who ramble and trip, your trail running skills will help you
escape their grasp. The speed and skill in avoiding impediments on the
ground required to race through the woods will be a welcome gift when
evading the undead.
